Hello
I have recently got into PC gaming after years of console gaming.
PC gamers tend to talk about having cheaper games than consoles/better graphics/better frame rates etc etc etc
One thing that never really gets mentioned, but concerns me is that you don't 'own' the game.
What I mean is this- PC gaming is done via Steam and unlike buying physical discs for consoles, you are tied to Valve's T&C's and DRM.
Does this concern any of you PC gamers?
thanks
EDIT: I have just remember, didn't Microsoft try to implement Steam style DRM on Xbox One games(correct me if im wrong), and there was a huge backlash from gamers causing MS to change the policy....but PC gamers have not made such a fuss about DRM on PC gaming
